It looks like whisper + google translate + google TTS. Typical "quality" for that stack, bad latency, no any privacy.
I'm developer of "Linguist", a browser extension for translation in browser, and I say you that nowadays it is possible to translate text locally in device. Linguist have embedded offline translator. The same with TTS and voice recognition.
All this features may run locally in-device, even in browser extension, but not in macOS application?
This product looks rather like a malware that will spy on users and then blackmail us or sell our conversations to email scammers for better targeting or anything.
Additionally it is interesting that Chinese and Korean languages is not supported. You just use cloud services, they are all support these languages, why you don't? Is it to fake something?
"12 hours translation per month" for $29. 12 hours it's about 6-12 meetings? Who is your audience then?
